How to Make Cranberry Cherry Icebox Ribbon Cookies

  1. In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup of granulated sugar, 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) of unsalted butter until light and fluffy.
  2. Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon of baking soda.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Stir in 1 cup of cranberry sauce and 1 cup of cherry pie filling.
  6. Divide the dough in half. Shape each half into a log (approximately 1.5 inches in diameter). Wrap each log tightly in plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight.
  7. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  8. Slice each chilled dough log into 1/4-inch thick cookies. Place cookies 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
  9. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  10. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
